Pulverized Coal Combustion: the Influence of Flame Temperature and Coal Composition on Thermal and Fuel

A laboratory combustor was used to investigate the factors that influence the conversion of fuel nitrogen in coal during coal combustion. Fuel NO was isolated by experimentation utilizing Argon/Oxygen/Carbon Dioxide mixtures as the oxidant, and care was taken to compare cases with air at matched conditions. For both well mixed and slowly mixed flame types, fuel NO contributed over 75% of the to...

Combustion characteristics of primary reference fuel (PRF) droplets: Single stage high temperature combustion to multistage •Cool FlameŽ behavior

We report experiments and detailed numerical modeling of mixtures of primary reference fuel (PRF) droplets consisting of n -heptane and iso -octane with initial droplet diameters of 0.5 and 3.51 mm. The results show a quasi-steady, low temperature (or “Cool Flame” ( CF )) droplet burning mode that stems from a varying two-stage chemical kinetic behavior of the combustion chemistry. The simulati...
